Why no one is exceptional, yet we are all different in some way

in life •  3 years ago 

Three extraordinary individuals: a fantastic football player, a creative businessman, and a talented actress... Others are hardworking and determined, while others are naturally gifted and imaginative in their abilities. We, on the other hand, are prone to labelling them as "special," as if they were simply "born fortunate." As a result, we may find relief in attributing to other occurrences our own flaws or traits that we view as flaws in ourselves, rather than problems in ourselves. We believe that in order for something to happen, we must stand out from the crowd. We're at a loss on what to do.

It is said by the narrator that "we are not special because they are."
One can find comfort in Fatalism, or the concept that events happen outside of our control. However, it is a false belief that can lead to insolvency on the other hand. Actually, we are not seeking to convey the message that we are all unique and that you are valuable in any way. For our part, we believe that in a society where everyone is unique, this will become the standard and lose its significance.

Despite this, the vast majority of us are fixated with the idea of being different from others. Our parents instilled this interest in us as children, which turns into a form of resentment when we get older and face similar persons, realising that life isn't always so straightforward. As if we weren't special and valuable, why can't we resist and act as if the most beautiful things in the world happened to others but not to us instead? This results in feelings of self-dissatisfaction, a loss of self-confidence, and even despair for the individual.

We are all ordinary people who, despite our commonality, are one-of-a-kind in our extraordinaryness.
The fact of the matter is that we are all mediocre and unique in our mediocrity. We all have unique features that set us apart from others, as well as peculiarities. The features that differentiate us not as individuals, but as persons inside ourselves, are those that we share in common. It is possible to be attentive of one's surroundings and live one's life without becoming intoxicated, arrogant, or overconfident in one's own abilities or abilities. In actuality, being arrogant about one's own uniqueness is a dangerous trait that drives people to become oblivious to their own flaws and causes them to overlook their own shortcomings, and it should be avoided at all times.

A self-aware individual is better able to make a more objective and concrete decision. A better grasp of his positive and bad characteristics, what he can and cannot accomplish, as well as what others are capable of accomplishing better than him, has developed in him.

Furthermore, accepting mediocrity can be a really liberating state of mind. Nobody is exceptional, and therefore, where they come from or what they have does not constitute a gift; rather, it is something that can be obtained through hard effort and dedication. As a result, the justifications we use for not being who we want to be are no longer valid, and we become stronger and more capable.
